Summary: This study reports the synthesis of well-defined polypeptides containing semicarbazide moieties via direct polymerization of N-phenoxycarbonyl-functionalized alpha-amino acid (NPCA) based monomers. These polypeptides can be further decorated with ketone/aldehyde-containing agents with the formation of pH-cleavable semicarbazone linkages. The intracellular acidic pH-triggered release promotes drug escape from endolysosomes and enhances anti-tumor efficacy, which can be also employed for highly sensitive detection of tumor lesions.

Summary: Lysosomes are organelles that contain acidic hydrolases and play a crucial role in cellular degradation and homeostasis. They are involved in autophagy and various cell death pathways, including lysosomal and apoptotic death. Compounds such as lysosomotropic compounds, antihistamines, DNA-damaging drugs, and chemotherapeutics can induce lysosomal membrane permeability, promoting lysosomal-mediated cell death. Combining lysosomotropic compounds with autophagy modulators may be a promising approach in cancer treatment and overcoming chemoresistance.

Summary: A novel genetically encoded fluorescent protein-based pH biosensor called FIRE-pHLy was designed to better understand lysosomal pH, enabling ratiometric quantification and targeting lysosomes with LAMP1. The biosensor reported lumenal pH between 3.5 and 6.0 with mTFP1 and enabled quantification of the alkalinizing response to bafilomycin Al in various cellular models. FIRE-pHLy is a specific, robust, and versatile lysosomal pH biosensor with broad applications in investigating pH dynamics in aging- and lysosome-related diseases and lysosome-based drug discovery.

Summary: A versatile biomimetic nanoplatform, HM-BPT, was developed to target the tumor microenvironment (TME) and deliver a glutamine metabolism inhibitor, BPTES. HM-BPT treatment showed significant tumor inhibition, infiltration of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), and activation of the STING pathway in macrophages. Furthermore, the combination of glutathione depletion and oxygen supply improved the immunosuppressive status of the TME and enhanced antitumor immune responses.

Summary: NCLs are a group of lysosomal storage diseases caused by autosomal recessive mutations. One variant of NCL, vLINCL, is caused by mutations in the lysosomal membrane protein CLN7, which has been identified as a novel endolysosomal chloride channel. Overexpression of CLN7 can increase chloride currents and enlarge endolysosomes, suggesting a potential treatment strategy for vLINCL.

Summary: In this study, star amphiphilic copolymers with a beta-cyclodextrin (pCD) core and seven poly (butylene oxide)-block-polyglycidol (PBO-PGL) arms per side were synthesized and characterized for polymersome-based nanoreactor purposes. The self-assembly behavior and ion permeability of the membranes were investigated. The results showed that the morphology of the self-assemblies was determined by the hydrophobic-to-hydrophilic ratio, and the pCD-containing membranes exhibited lower permeability to H. and influenced the K.Cl- permeability.

Summary: Previous studies have shown that breast cancer cells employ various strategies to resist anticancer drugs, such as docetaxel, through drug-resistance mechanisms like overexpression of P-glycoprotein and cancer stem cells. By inhibiting both P-glycoprotein and cancer stem cells, the combination of docetaxel and disulfiram shows potential in sensitizing drug-resistant breast cancer cells. This study developed a pH-responsive nanoparticle system for the co-delivery of docetaxel and disulfiram, which demonstrated improved drug release, penetration, and cytotoxic efficacy against drug-resistant breast cancer cells in vitro, as well as enhanced tumor drug delivery and anti-tumor efficacy in vivo.

Summary: In this study, a highly effective surfactant producer strain, Bacillus Cereus GX7, was isolated from the oil tank bottom sludge of Shengli Oil Field in China. The biosurfactant produced by GX7 was identified as surfactin, a lipopeptide surfactant, through TLC, FT-IR, and LC-MS/MS analysis. The fermentation process of GX7 was optimized using single-factor experiments, focusing on the composition of fermentation medium and fermentation conditions. Glucose and peptone were found to be the best carbon and nitrogen sources, and the optimum temperature, inoculum amount, pH, rotation speed, and fermentation time for the strain were determined to be 30°C, 1%, 7.5, 150 rpm, and 48 h, respectively. After optimization, the surface tension and emulsification index of the fermentation broth were 26.84 mN/m and 57.84%, respectively. Furthermore, the biosurfactant produced by GX7 demonstrated good stability over a wide range of temperature, pH, and salt concentration.

Summary: Effective management of biofluids is crucial for in vivo surgical interventions. Recent advances include self-sealing needles, drug-eluting stents, and shear-thinning hydrogels. However, complications associated with intestinal mucosal injury and secondary damage still persist. In this study, researchers developed an interpenetrating Janus wettability stent coating that enables unidirectional draining of excessive biofluid. They also demonstrated directional biofluid movement using a self-pumping dressing with potential applications in biofluid collection and disease diagnosis through metal ion detection. This integrated system presents an opportunity for designing wound dressings with effective biofluid management and metal ion detection capabilities.
